Be the reason for someone's smile.

I can feel the energy of 2026 - let's go!

This year I haven't made any new year resolution, no plans, no thoughts. I couldn't even found my 3 words of the year! One thing for certain 'resilience' would be one. However, a few things I love seem to be lining up, including someone who turned up at the door and gave me valuable advice!

@carolstephen.bsky.social Portsmouth is celebrating a century of being made a city - so lots of 100 celebrations. Maybe I should paint 100 portraits. #DigiBlogChat

Q9. Is digitizing your old tech on your list of resolutions this year? Why or why not? #DigiBlogChat

A9 Only when it reduces risk or friction. Digitizing clutter without a purpose just creates faster clutter. #DigiBlogChat

The trouble with resolutons anytime, not only Januay, is when there's no acion plan attached to it. A goal without a plan is a wish. #DigiBlogChat

Q8. Tell us one high-tech resolution you’d like to share with us! #DigiBlogChat

Between questions, we’d like to announce next week’s topic: Living Analog in a Digital World! #DigiBlogChat

This feel cosy...

A7. I think it’s good to have goals throughout the year. #digiblogchat

Mangroves preserve biodiversity, support livelihoods & are essential for the nutrition & food security of millions. We all benefit from mangroves. Protecting them is protecting the health of our planet. #GenerationRestoration

There might be some resolutions that are similar, but not exactly the same. Perhaps the personal ones would be better when compared. #DigiBlogChat

Q7. Are January resolutions a good idea? Why or why not? #DigiBlogChat

Q6. Will you check out your coworkers’ resolutions? #DigiBlogChat

This. 100% #DigiBlogChat

Swiss bar hit by deadly New Year’s fire had no safety checks in five years https://aje.io/f6cub6

A5. Some resolutions were accomplished, but frankly I didn’t look at them much past about March. Maybe they need to be quarterly for some people? #DigiBlogChat

#DigiBlogChat is powered by the incredible opportunities you each bring to learning and sharing knowledge, thank you for all the energy you bring to our weekly discussions!

Q4. Will you use AI to help you compose your resolutions? Why or why not? #DigiBlogChat

We're already trending! #DigiBlogChat

Q3. How do you protect yourself when wandering about the interwebs? #DigiBlogChat

A2. Yes, I’d like to protect my privacy more by following some suggested guidelines, such as the California Delete Request and Opt-out Platform. Every state should have something similar! #DigiBlogChat

A1. I’d start by looking back at last year’s resolutions and seeing which of the high-tech ones worked and which didn’t. #DigiBlogChat

Q1. Where would you start when composing your high-tech resolutions? #DigiBlogChat

Taking things one day at a time. Welcomed back to work with a new space my colleague had created for me. Catching up over good news. I love it.

January doesn’t have to be overwhelming. Reset one space at a time and you’re on your way to a calmer 2026. Our tip? Add lockers to your mudroom or entryway for all your kids’ school stuff, so they can easily grab whatever they need in the morning and head out the door. #januaryreset

Fieldfares in the hawthorns at Sutton Bank, North Yorkshire (UK). These beautiful thrushes are winter visitors to the UK, though numbers vary. It’s impressive how such large, striking birds can almost vanish among a tangle of branches, berries and grey winter sky. Watercolour painting. 🐡🪶
